NHI approves Charice rendition of the Philippine National Anthem

International singing sensation and soon to be Glee’s mainstay Charice Pempengco sang the Philippine national anthem during the inauguration rites of the 15th president of the republic, President Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III, Wednesday morning, 30 June 2010 at the historic Quirino Grandstand.

This time with a two thumbs-up from the sharp-eared and the very meticulous NHI (National Historical Institute). The rendition was Charice second attempt after she was reprimanded by the group for her incorrect rendition back in 2008 when she opened the “Myx Mo” concert singing the national anthem.NHI was pleased on how Charice delivers the song and as a sign of appreciation the institute will formally congratulate the young singer and her mother by sending her email.

NHI has previously lambasted top rated singers the likes of Christian Bautista, Martin Nievera, and Journey’s Arnel Pineda among others for the lack of respect of the national anthem by changing, arrangement of the song.
